Naomi,
Come on, in .Net world everything is a class or struct (class in a sense). But isn't the form a class in VFP too? Is VFP on the 'dark side' as you call it or are you saying with "do form" I am not using a class???

IMHO the basic difference is personal preference. Rest are slight nuances. No need for confusion. I wouldn't live happily if I had to use VCX based forms only. To me "do form" is easier.
